SUMMARY:August First Fridays Artswalk
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy brand new indoor art shows\, murals\, and Artscape’s Pittsfield Paintboxes during the First Fridays Artswalk on Friday\, August 6\, 5 to 8 pm\, and all month long. You can view all locations at www.FirstFridaysArtswalk.com\, and new this year\, you can download the PocketSights app to follow a virtual walking tour on your cell phone. \n  \nThe Berkshire Art Association (BAA) is hosting “Everyone Is a Hero: A Comic and Cartoon Art Tribute to Our Local Heroes” at the Lichtenstein Center for the Arts\, 28 Renne Avenue\, August 6 – 28\, featuring original artwork and signed auction items created by popular Marvel\, DC\, and The Simpsons comic book artists: Luke McDonnell\, Penim Loureiro\, and Bill Morrison. \n  \nThe show is curated by BAA board member and Pittsfield resident Lawrence Klein\, founder of the Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art in New York City. “I came up with a few themes\, and my idea was to ask American comic book artist Luke McDonnell and Portuguese comic book artist Penim Loureiro to create unique drawings from the same list of subjects\,” says Klein. “How do two artists from different parts of the world view the same subject matter? They took up the challenge of creating their own visions and the results are amazing.” The show also features sketches and autographed items for auction by Bill Morrison\, creative director of The Simpsons and Futurama\, and Patrick McDonnell\, creator of MUTTS. Local Berkshire artists will also show their illustration work. “The show brings together an impressive group of artists and the result is great fun\,” says BAA member Liz Bevilacqua. “You’ll see familiar heroes and heroines like Batman\, Iron Man\, and Harley Quinn in new and creative ways.” \n  \nThere will be a sneak peek of the exhibit on Friday\, August 6\, 5 to 8 pm\, during the First Fridays Artswalk\, and the opening party is Saturday\, August 7 from 3 to 6 pm. \n  \nFor the month of August\, The Marketplace Café\, 53 North Street\, will feature Finding Our Way Creations by Jess Frey. There will be an opening reception on Friday\, August 6\, 5 to 8 pm\, as part of First Fridays Artswalk. \n  \nThis series of art is an expression of the transformational process of getting lost\, finding the way\, forgetting the way\, becoming the way\, and being the way. Each painting is accompanied by a poem\, telling a story\, sharing an experience\, and connecting written word to visual art. Through the relationship between written and visual art\, Frey’s hope is to support all of us together in the continued journey of finding our way. \n  \nHotel on North\, 297 North Street\, will feature Electric Color by Jesse Tobin McCauley for the August Artswalk. There will be a reception with the artist on Friday\, August 6\, 5 to 8 pm\, as part of First Fridays Artswalk. \n  \nMcCauley’s paintings are mixed media on canvas and paper – bursts of bold\, bright\, saturated color. They evoke a feeling of happiness through the flood of interacting abstract color.\nThe Brothership Building Window at 141 North Street\, curated by IS183 Art School of the Berkshires\, will feature “Postapocalypsse and Calculation” by Rosemary Lamiacea for the month of August. \n  \nRosemary is an apprentice weaver interested in emergence\, rhythm\, and functional textiles. The textiles on view are selections from their first two years of exploring how to make new surfaces and what they can do. They were handwoven with wool\, cotton\, and linen on\, and in collaboration with\, centuries-old looms. Covering a range of familiar structures\, including plain weave\, twill\, M’s & O’s\, waffle weave\, and lace\, they try to take these techniques in new directions through juxtaposition\, color\, and construction. \n  \nThe Unitarian Universalist Church of Pittsfield\, 175 Wendell Avenue\, will feature new photographs by Linda Merry in a show entitled The Superflight Exhibit: Finch Irruption 2020 for the month of August. This exhibit highlights a mere sampling of an incredible irruption of northern finches that inundated not only New England\, but also places as far south as Alabama. \n  \nThere will be framed photographic prints on exhibit as well as a digital exhibition showcasing additional works. There will be an opening reception on Friday\, August 6\, 5 to 8 pm\, as part of First Fridays Artswalk. \n  \nArtists in the Guild of Berkshire Artists will show their work in a show entitled Plein Air in the Berkshires during the month of August at TKG Real Estate\, 137 North Street. There will be a reception as part of First Friday Artswalk on Friday\, August 6\, 5 to 8 pm. The work will be up during the month of August and can be viewed when TKG is open. Featured artists are Amy Pressman (watercolor and encaustic)\, Joan Gluck (oil)\, Rose Tannenbaum (acrylic)\, Theresa Terry (watercolor)\, and Doane Perry (photographer). \n  \nThe August Artswalk will also highlight murals downtown including: The Sun Will Rise by Jesse Tobin McCauley\, Jay Tobin and Stephanie Quetti at 443 North Street and Gaia on Melville Street by Mike Carty. Also highlighted will be all of Artscape’s Pittsfield Paintboxes. \n  \nAll art exhibits are on display in participating venues throughout the month. For more information on First Fridays Artswalk and to view a listing and map of all participating artists and locations\, visit www.FirstFridaysArtswalk.com. \n  \nThis program is supported in part by a grant from the Pittsfield Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency. \n  \nFeatured image: Electric Color by Jesse Tobin McCauley on view at Hotel on North

DESCRIPTION:Andy Karl and Orfeh: Legally Bound\nMonday\, August 23 at 8pm \nOutdoors under the tent at the BSC Production Center \nShe has a “powerhouse voice” (The New York Times). He is “a theater world heartthrob” (The New York Times). Together\, Orfeh and Andy Karl have had an impressively long run as one of Broadway’s best couples.

Fresh off their run in Pretty Woman as Kit De Luca and Edward Lewis\, Broadway’s power couple celebrates the release of their new album with a return engagement of their hit show Legally Bound. The sexy\, funny and enormously talented duo tear through an eclectic mix of pop\, rock\, rhythm and blues\, and showtunes that is sure to excite and delight! \nOrfeh and Andy will be joined by musical director Steven Jamail and their band for an unforgettable evening of chart-toppers\, show-stoppers and high belting.
